Hey Don.

I have a solution for you, but that part is not available anywhere as far as I can tell. The only custom fit part our vendors offer as replacement is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C55316 which is a 4 way flat that connects to your factory connectors. Technically you could do that, then install the # ETBC7 which converts it to a 7 way round like you're wanting.

That would be a lot of work if just the 7 way connector is damaged, and not the wiring. If it's a standard 7 way and you just need that connector replaced, you can go with the Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End # PK11893 which will plug into a standard connection at the back of it. You could also grab the harness that plugs into it with part # PK11998 and manually hardwire it into your existing wiring.

Either option should work, but if you need more guidance or just want to send an image for reassurance on what you have, feel free to send it to [email protected]

Andrew! Thanks so much for your reply. I think this #C55316 $-way flat connector will be perfect. Although the '97 F-250 came with a 7-pin connector, I don't currently tow an RV or large trailer with trailer brakes. The smaller trailers I use all have standard 4-pin connectors so I have been using an adapter to the 7-pin receptacle on the truck. I really like the idea of connecting to the existing two plug wiring harness connectors without cutting or splicing anything. I will order the #C55316 soon! Can you also recommend a suitable mounting bracket for this 4-way flat connector? Thanks again. --- Don

@DonS Happy to help, and I'm glad it'll work out for you! I apologize for the delay, I was on vacation! Looks like you already purchased the 4 way and the 4 way bracket # C42CR, and that will work out good for this! Let me know if you need anything else.
